Comment (by huzaifaalmesbah):

 If `wp_get_branch_version()` is introduced and returns `major.minor` (e.g.
 `7.0`, `6.9`), we could keep the current `admin-header.php` behavior
 (dropping the trailing `.0`) like this:

 {{{
 $admin_body_class .= ' branch-' . str_replace( '.', '-', preg_replace(
 '/\.0$/', '', wp_get_branch_version() ) );
 }}}


 This removes the `(float)` cast while preserving the existing `branch-7`
 behavior.
